2018 FIFA World Cup - 10 July 2018

Loading player...
It’s the battle of the neighbours this evening when France and Belgium face each other in the first semi-final the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia.
Sixty matches have been completed it at the global showpiece and the event in Russia has arguably been the most unpredictable to date.
One this is a give and that is by Sunday, we will either have a first time winner or a one team will be adding a second star to their chest.
France won the World Cup for the first and only time in 1998, when they hosted the tournament, while England, who will play against Croatia tomorrow night, won 1966, when they also hosted the finals.
Belgium and Croatia have both reached the last four for the second time in their history, and neither has been able to one step further.
